I don't really care about anyone's opinion on "teacup" Yorkies or that he over priced them, I've been on other websites that sell 4-5lb yorkies for $3,000-$5,000. Also it's my money so I will do what I like with my money.
That's all I have to say about this, I'm no longer checking this post so don't waist your time replying. Thanks.

That's really sad because bad breeders are ruining the breed we love so much. They are also doing bad things. Well you were warned........... Your money or not supporting a bad breeder is wrong. Most of us have lived through bad breeders and heart break because of it. We know what to look for and what makes a breeder reputable. Teacup was a word made up by bad breeders period no reputable breed would be associated with that word.

I agree, I would not purchase from this breeder. I may get jumped for this but as someone with a great deal of experience with Chiari malformation, There is one pup I see in the puppy pics that I would bet my next breath is having some kind of an issue with either it's neck or skull.

Your right. Your money. But you did ask. PPL gave opinions. Experienced ppl who may have had problem puppies with noting to gain tell u theres. PPl who price dogs and use teacup to get money. Who don't breed to the high standards but sell for alot of money = greeder. You are paying more for your pup then I just paid for Weenie. Whos Grandpa is 2011 Westminster BOB and Great GP is World CH. With both sire and dam are CH. who happen to be on the small size so not ideal for showing. Not more because she was small. Good luck with you puppy

Also, is it just me or do some of those pups not even look like full yorkie. A couple seem to have really short hair compared to the others. A couple almost look like chi/yorkie mix.

Many of the puppies are a poor representation of a well bred yorkie. Some don't even look like a yorkie. JMO

PPL who sell them for $4k -5k also ..better have breeding rights and some serious lineage... they don't go for that much pet quality.

I agree about Chi/yorkie mix - several pups are strongly suggestive of this.

Winnie is gorgeous!
Good reply. I was once like the OP. I was 100% ignorant about dog breeding. I wanted a small cute yorkie and was willing to spend my savings to get one. My 3.5lb biewer (breeder adult est.) is now 6.5. He has chari and horriable knees. I am grateful for the information I have learned from others who are willing to share their knowledge and experience to help others here.
To the OP . Why ask for others opinion if you really didn't want it? Not sure what made you angry? I read a reply the other day that had me laughing out loud. Someone said "let me go wash the eggshells off the bottom of my feet" too funny
I can understand feeling upset over rude replys but there were none.

After re-reading the posts I see what made her upset. She felt she was being judged for wanting a teacup. I have learned here there is no such thing as a teacup and people who take the tinies and breed them to produce what they call teacups are unethical and care nothing about the dogs. they do it for $. (See you've taught me well). I have a tiny, 2.6, that was breed from a show breeder in Romulus MI. I recently looked up her linage. Her name is Belle of the Ball. She is now 5, beautiful and healty ( does have LP's #2)
I didn't get her because I wanted attention from others. I rarely take her out. I have a large extended family and she gets enough socialization from our visitors. I got her because I thought she was adorable. Pre YT if I were looking, I would jump all over a current e-bay classified pet listing for 1.1lb 12 week old ,in warren MI from flowman75. The new me would see a huge red flag and look the other way. Now, post YT, my advise to the OP would be, If you have your heart set on a tiny, do your research and find a good breeder following the advice learned here . If the breeder thinks you'd be a good mom for one 3lbs or under I'm sure you could get on her waiting list.
The small ones do require more care. I'm a stay at home wife so she's rarely left alone. She has to be feed by hand or she won't eat. And she loves to be held, if shes not on my lap I'm carrying her around with me. My husband calls her my parasite and has threatened to buy velco and permanely attach her to my chest. LOL

I remember my vet once told me "I'd never trust a breeder who prices their pups by their weight." It's the quality of the dog that sets the $ not the lb.

Exactly my point. Besides you can't tell or guarantee the size. I've seen tinies get large they were just slow starters. Some are smaller some are larger. But usually they price the same in the litter. Some litters may cost more but to price one $800 and another for $1500 in the same litter because of size?? The runt may end up bigger anyways.
